From the composer:

“La Forêt“ (The Forest) takes me back to childhood memories. In the neighborhood where I lived as a young child. there were some woods. I must have been around 10 years old. One day when strolling by myself in the woods I discovered a tree cabin high up a tree. I could not resist and climbed my way up to the tree cabin. It was magical. I sat down and had an amazing view and felt that the world belonged to me. That memory and the way I felt that day has stayed with me.
